How we handle bath resealing in Cole's Green
All of the old sealant is cut out, deal with any mould, and apply fresh mould-resistant silicone. We do this for baths, showers, sinks and worktops, including the awkward bits behind the taps. We work on basins & vanity units, kitchen worktops & sinks and shower trays & enclosures, and the jobs we see most are silicone coming away from the tiles and stained silicone.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IP13 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Cole's Green questions
How long does a reseal take?
Around two hours for a bath, then it needs to cure.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Why does mould come back so fast?
Mostly moisture and poor ventilation. We use mould-resistant silicone, and ventilation helps it last.
Do you come to Cole's Green?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Cole's Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Why reseal now?
Resealing is routine maintenance. Putting off a reseal can let water reach the walls and floor, and that damage costs much more to fix. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Ventilate the bathroom well
- Store bottles on a shelf
- Reseal when black spots will not clean off
- Keep the joints dry
Good ventilation is the best protection, and dry the joints after bathing to keep mould away.
Damp below or loose tiles need checking quickly. There may be more going on, so we’ll tell you if it needs a builder or plumber.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath or tray that moves, until its support is fixed
- Tiles that move, until they’re refixed
- Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Kitchen worktops & sinks
- Wet rooms

Signs you need bath resealing in Cole's Green
Sealant doesn’t last forever. Every bath or shower adds moisture and soap residue, which mould loves, and the joint flexes each time the bath fills.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Silicone smeared on tiles
- Sealant that is split or lifting
- Black mould in the sealant
- Water getting behind the bath or tray
